Using this table lamp is super easy. Just plug it into an outlet in your room. You can place it next to a chair for reading or anywhere in the room to brighten it up. Remember to use an E26 bulb with a wattage of up to 100. Since the bulb isn't included, you'll need to buy one separately. This lamp isn't dimmable, so what you see is what you get in terms of brightness. To keep it looking great, simply dust it regularly with a soft cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they could damage the gold finish or the marble base. And because it's UL listed, you can be confident in its safety. There's no need to worry about complicated assembly, as it comes ready to use.
